Chapter 253: National Thief, Kill and Decide!

"Humph! When I go out, I must participate in this road Zhenfei! In the prison of Tianxing Mansion, a man with crooked clothes and a slightly chubby body roared loudly.

The white-faced middle-aged man sitting on the ground next to him shook his head and sighed when he heard this, and continued to write what he was doing.

The slightly chubby man glanced at the paper in front of the middle-aged man, raised his hand and pressed the latter's pen, "I said Zhao Xuan, these eight characters haven't been skimmed yet, how can you arrange to get up and do the future?" ”

Zhao Xuan didn't raise his head and said: "If there is still someone in the family who can see this suicide note, it will be a blessing......"

"Why are you so depressed?" The slightly chubby man said disdainfully, "That Lu Zhenfei arrested the court officials without evidence!" I heard from the king in the prison opposite that nearly 200 courtiers were arrested last night. ”

He lowered his voice and said, "His Royal Highness the Auxiliary King has just been in charge of the court, and he definitely doesn't want Tianxing Mansion to rise up in such waves. As far as I can see, I'll be released in a few days. ”

"King Chen?" Zhao Xuan raised his eyes and said, "Lord Dong, have you ever thought about why King Chen was calm in the future, and he was born as soon as he entered the city?" ”

Master Dong was stunned for a moment, and turned his head to look at Zhao Kun, "What do you mean, is the auxiliary king...... But I don't know what happened to him hunting courtiers? ”

"Why...... Don't you count it yet? Hey, it's a thought......"

"I ......" Fear flashed on Lord Dong's face, but he immediately raised his head and said: "Hmph, he has only been in power for two days, and I don't believe that he dares to do anything to nearly two hundred courtiers." ”

"Two hundred?" Zhao Hao shook his head gloomily, "During the Hongwu Dynasty, Hu Weiyong's case involved thousands of officials, and it was not a ......."

"He, how can he, King Chen, compare to Emperor Taizu?" Master Dong still stiffened his neck, "Besides, he doesn't have any evidence, I estimate that it should be a demotion and punishment." He looked at the suicide note in Zhao Hong's hand again, as if he felt unlucky, grabbed it, and said irritably, "It can't stop here!" ”

After that, he paced around a few times in a restless manner, and shouted outside the prison: "Someone! Someone! ”

A jailer frowned and walked over, impatiently saying, "What are you yelling about?!" ”

"You, you help me bring a letter to Zhang Shilang," Master Dong said hurriedly, "I'll give you three hundred taels." ”

The jailer snorted disdainfully, "You guy, how dare you openly bribe? He kicked the wooden fence, "I will also tell you that it is reported that His Royal Highness the Auxiliary King read out the letter of the Emperor in public today. Take your money, don't you think you can live long? ”

Before he finished speaking, he heard that someone had entered the prison and called the names of more than 20 people aloud, including Dong Daxing. Dozens of jailers then opened the cell door, dragged the men out, and put shackles on their heads.

Dong Daxing was immediately terrified, "You, what are you doing here?" ”

"What for?" A long-bearded criminal department official stood at the door, his voice like ice, "Send you on your way." ”

"How so!" Dong Da struggled excitedly, "Before you have been tried by the Three Law Divisions, how dare you kill the imperial court officials?!" ”

"The Three Divisions?" The long-bearded official pointed at him with his nostrils and said, "His Royal Highness the Auxiliary King said, the evidence is conclusive, the crime is extremely heinous, and the tedious and complicated scenes are all avoided, and the decision will be made." ”

When Dong Daxing heard this, he felt that his legs were weak, and a pool of warm liquid had flowed down his pants.

Subsequently, these more than 20 traitors were loaded into a prisoner car, and even the severed head meal was saved, and they were directly escorted to the downtown area.

Hundreds of dragon guards had already formed a large circle here, blocking the people who were watching the excitement outside. Afterwards, a group of death row inmates were pressed to the ground, and the executioner stood by with fierce eyes.

After the officials of the Criminal Department verified their identities, someone took the letters of the dozen or so people and read them out in public.

Although the hundreds of people who watched these extremely flattering and incomparably sensible contents seemed to understand it, they all understood that this was a famous hall of treason against the enemy, and no one was filled with righteous indignation, scolding the sky, and the anger in their eyes could simply burn these national thieves to death.

Without any delay, with the order of the prison officer, blood splattered on the spot, and more than a dozen heads fell to the ground at the same time, and the surrounding immediately erupted into long-lasting cheers.

"Well killed!"

"You deserve it!"

"Cut down all the national thieves!"

After the "main course", some officials simply cleaned up the execution ground, and dozens of people were escorted up, but they were the families of those national thieves.

According to the suggestions of He Kai and the Criminal Department, among the nearly 200 traitors, all those who have serious crimes such as reporting to Jianyu, transmitting news about the Ming military and politics, and revealing the Ming army's defense will all be wiped out by the three clans. Those who only offer books and surrender to sincerity will only behead the offender himself and confiscate his family property.

To be honest, Zhu Linmiao himself did not agree with this kind of joint sitting system, but according to the laws of the Ming Dynasty, this was a very normal move, and considering that these people were really disdainful of the world, he did not object.

The execution was over, and the onlookers were about to leave, but a small official loudly announced that there were still a group of national thieves to be killed the next day. The crowd immediately became noisy again, and everyone agreed to come back tomorrow to watch the killing.

After noon, excited shouts were heard everywhere in the city, "There is a big drama in the south and north of the city that doesn't require money, go and see it!" ”

Such a good thing naturally cannot be missed, and soon, the two stages in Tianxing Mansion with banners of "Mission Mansion Huimin Performance" have been surrounded by water.

Hong Si personally presided over it, and first loudly preached that the war in Fujing had ended, and tens of thousands of troops were captured, and Tianxing Mansion was in good order under the leadership of His Royal Highness King Chen Fuzheng, and those who left the city to avoid the war could return home with confidence.

Then there is the opening of the big play, and the script is the "Three Victories" just written by Tian Zhuangfei and others along the way, which tells the three great victories of Xianxia Pass, Yanping and Shanguan achieved by the Long Weijun in Fujing.

The plot of the whole play is full of ups and downs, and the people in the city are boiling with enthusiasm, and whenever there is a plot where the Dragon Guard defeats Jianyu, the audience erupts in earth-shattering applause.

The Ming Dynasty has been defeated by Jianyu for too much and too long, and even the people of the Ming Dynasty have begun to become numb, and they have lost confidence in defeating Jianyu in their hearts. There are even sayings such as "invincible in the construction of captives" in the north and south of the river.

The disappointment of the Ming army and the fear of Jianyu weighed on everyone's heart. One day, the Tartars invade their homes, and they are forced to shave their hair and become obedient, and the nightmare of kneeling at the feet of the Tartars and serving as slaves haunts everyone.

And the hearty victories on the stage are like clearing the haze, reappearing every day, and everyone has the refreshment of growing a mouthful of stuffiness in their chests.

"Well played!"

"Kill a few more Jiannu!"

"Kill the dog Tartar and avenge my father!"

Soon, the shouts from the audience drowned out the lyrics on the stage.

Hong Si watched the scene backstage, but did not come forward to maintain order. He knows that what the people need more than a free drama is confidence and excitement. What can give them all this is not the drama on the stage, but the hope brought to them by the country and the imperial court, and this hope is melted into their earth-shattering cheers.
